Surface flooding and overflowing manholes during storm events indicate a storm drain system that has lost design capacity — through sediment accumulation, structural obstruction, or pipe failure that restricts flow below design levels. Restoring capacity through trenchless rehabilitation prevents property damage, liability exposure, and regulatory violation.

Commercial storm drain systems lose capacity through specific mechanisms — each identifiable by camera inspection and addressable through targeted trenchless rehabilitation.
Surface flooding from storm drain systems has different causes with different solutions — camera inspection identifies which mechanism is causing the capacity loss before any rehabilitation scope is developed.
Surface flooding from failed storm drain systems affects commercial properties with high impervious coverage, aging drainage infrastructure, and properties in low-lying areas near natural drainage pathways.
A Charlotte retail strip center had experienced parking lot flooding during moderate storm events for three consecutive seasons — always in the same low-area near the main storm drain run. Camera inspection found significant sediment accumulation throughout and a partial crown collapse at one section approximately 40 feet from the main inlet.
LiningWorks hydro-jetted the full storm drain run to clear sediment accumulation, then installed a CIPP liner through the collapsed section. Post-installation camera confirmed full sediment removal and liner bond at the collapse location. No flooding has occurred since rehabilitation through multiple storm events.
“Parking lot flooding every time it rained hard for three seasons. Camera found sediment everywhere and a partial collapse 40 feet from the inlet. LiningWorks jetted the full system and lined the collapse in one mobilization. Zero flooding events through an entire hurricane season since.”

We had a plumbing emergency around the holiday's and called a local plumbing company. They cleared the line and quoted a pretty high price to dig up my yard and fix the damaged sewer line. The next day I found LiningWorks online and called Jeremiah. He was very helpful and confident they could fix my sewer line without digging. Seemed too good to be true. The lining has been installed, yard not damaged and looks to have resolved the break. Jeremiah even offered to come back and scope it at a later time to ensure it's all good. Highly recommend Lining Works for any situation where you can't or don't want to dig. Thanks guys!
LiningWorks was top notch. We had a sewer main that got damaged and was completely blocked up. They were able to clear the drain, remove all issues, and reline the entire sewer main without cutting out my driveway and yard. And they were able to get the job done in one day. I would and plan to do business these guys again in the future and would highly recommend them to others.
Where do I begin? Let's just say I had an absolute nightmare on my hands for about 5 years with my sewage. I had one company quote me 7k after he snaked my sewage line and from there I just kept snaking it every year. I dreaded the oncoming financial disaster but I bit the bullet and called LiningWorks. BEST home decision of 5 years. Jeremiah came out and tackled this chaos with grace and integrity. He got down to the root of it — after years of money, anxiety, and frustration he found out it was a city problem! I will definitely be calling LiningWorks when my lining needs replacing. Call them now, you will not be disappointed.
Hired them to redo the pipes at my home because they were old. They were very polite, answered all my questions thoroughly and did an AMAZING job. Jeremiah was the very best that I could ask for and highly recommend his services. Extremely satisfied with the work done. Thanks again Jeremiah!
I am very happy with the work that was done and the clean up after the job was done. Jeremiah and Ralph are very professional and skilled in their craft. I received an estimate and the job did exceed the original estimate. I contacted them about it and they were very understanding and explained why.
Lining Works was excellent to work with. They were perfectly professional. They were organized, efficient, and friendly throughout the whole process. They took time to answer all of our questions. Pipe lining is an incredible option and the team at Lining Works couldn't have been better. They were also transparent, honest, and consistent with their cost/pricing. We couldn't be happier. We feel very fortunate that we found Lining Works. Great guys!
The main drain line in our airbnb kept clogging up, filling the house with an awful sewage smell. We had drain cleaners come out to clear the line every couple months but it finally got so bad we had to close off our bookings. LiningWorks were very prompt in coming out. We discovered tree roots had broken up our line. Our sewage line runs under a tree and 6ft deep through our crawlspace so digging it up was going to be a nightmare. Liningworks was able to cut the tree roots out and line the pipe without any digging so that it's as good as new. Would definitely recommend them to anyone needing sewage line repair.
Lining Works responded to my request quickly and fixed my drain problem very fast. I would highly recommend you give them a call.
Storm drain capacity restoration requires accurate diagnosis before rehabilitation scope development. LiningWorks camera inspection identifies whether the problem is structural, sediment, or capacity-related before recommending any work.
Camera assessment identifies the cause — then we address it in a single mobilization where possible.
336-477-3218, Mon–Sat 7AM–6PM. Where the water ponds, how quickly during storm events, whether it's recurring — describe the flooding pattern and we'll schedule the right camera assessment.
We scope the affected storm drain system to identify sediment accumulation, structural failure, and flow restrictions — then develop a combined rehabilitation scope to restore design capacity.
Hydro jetting clears sediment and CIPP lining addresses structural defects — both performed through existing access points. Post-installation camera confirms capacity restoration.
